A Council republic is term used to refer to a republican system of government where directly elected councils play a prominent role in a country's politics. While the exact structure of the government varies, common characteristics of council republics include an association with socialism, implementation of a varying degree of direct democracy, an emphasis on collective leadership, and nonpartisanism. The term is often used to differentiate these states from Euclean capitalist liberal democracies. It is the predominant form of government for socialist states in the world, such as Dezevau, Kirenia, and Lavana. Council republics are generally considered to be democratic, but some states such as Arthasthan has been accused of authoritarianism.

The political thought associated with the establishment and continuation of a council republic is known as councilism or council republicanism and its proponents are known as Councilists.
